Are Cell Phones and Wireless Technology Dangerous?

http://www.emfnews.org/qlinks.html Watch as this man uses special device to measure dangers of cell phones and office equipment.
A cellular phone is basically a radio that sends signals on waves to a base station. The carrier signal generates two types of radiation fields: a near-field plume and a far-field plume. Living organisms, too, generate electromagnetic fields at the cellular, tissue, organ, and organism level; this is called the biofield. Both the near-field and far-field plumes from cell phones and in the environment can wreak havoc with the human biofield, and when the biofield is compromised in any way, says Dr. Carlo, so is metabolism and physiology.

"The near field plume is the one we're most concerned with. This plume that's generated within five or six inches of the center of a cell phone's antenna is determined by the amount of power necessary to carry the signal to the base station," he explains. "The more power there is, the farther the plume radiates the dangerous information-carrying radio waves."

A carrier wave oscillates at 1900 megahertz (MHz) in most phones, which is mostly invisible to our biological tissue and doesn't do damage. The information-carrying secondary wave necessary to interpret voice or data is the problem, says Dr. Carlo. That wave cycles in a hertz (Hz) range familiar to the body. Your heart, for example, beats at two cycles per second, or two Hz. Our bodies recognize the information-carrying wave as an "invader," setting in place protective biochemical reactions that alter physiology and cause biological problems that include intracellular free-radical buildup, leakage in the blood-brain barrier, genetic damage, disruption of intercellular communication, and an increase in the risk of tumors. The health dangers of recognizing the signal, therefore, aren't from direct damage, but rather are due to the biochemical responses in the cell.

Here's what happens:

Cellular energy is now used for protection rather than metabolism. Cell membranes harden, keeping nutrients out and waste products in.

Waste accumulating inside the cells creates a higher concentration of free radicals, leading to both disruption of DNA repair (micronuclei) and cellular dysfunction.

Unwanted cell death occurs, releasing the micronuclei from the disrupted DNA repair into the fluid between cells (interstitial fluid), where they are free to replicate and proliferate. This, says Dr. Carlo, is the most likely mechanism that contributes to cancer.
With the background levels of information-carrying radio waves dramatically increasing because of the widespread use of cell phones,Wi-Fi, and other wireless communication, the effects from the near and far-fields are very similar. Overall, says Dr. Carlo, almost all of the acute and chronic symptoms seen in electrosensitive patients can be explained in some part by disrupted intercellular communication. These symptoms of electrosensitivity include inability to sleep, general malaise, and headaches. Could this explain the increase in recent years of conditions such as ADHD), autism, and anxiety disorder?

"One thing all these conditions have in common is a disruption, to varying degrees, of intercellular communication. When we were growing up, TV antennas were on top of our houses and such waves were up in the sky. Cell phones and Wi-Fi have brought those things down to the street, integrated them into the environment, and that's absolutely new. The recognition mechanism, where protein vibration sensors on the cell membrane pick up a signal and interpret it as an invader, only works because the body recognizes something it's never seen before."

As to increases in brain tumors tied to cell phone use, it's too early to tell due to a lack of hard data, says Dr. Carlo. "We're never going to see that in time to have it matter. Here in the US, we're six years behind in getting the brain tumor database completed, and currently the best data are from 1999. By the time you see any data showing an increase, the ticking time bomb is set."

Epidemic curve projections, however, indicate that in 2006, we can expect to see 40,000 to 50,000 cases of brain and eye cancer. This is based on published peer-reviewed studies that allow calculation of risk and construction of epidemic curves. By 2010, says Dr. Carlo, expect that number to be between 400,000 and 500,000 new cases worldwide.

"This means we're on the beginning curve of an epidemic, with epidemic defined as a change in the occurrence of a disease that is so dramatic in its increase that it portends serious public health consequences," says Dr. Carlo. "This is what's not being told to the public. One of the things that I suggest to people who use a cell phone is to use an air tube headset. If you use a wired headset, the current moving through the wire of the headset attracts ambient informational carrying radio waves and thereby increases your exposure." http://www.emfnews.org/headset.html

HAM radio also known as amateur radio,  with giant antenna with tall tower in your neighbourhood. can produce 2500 more radiation than cell phone.

Ham radio are 1500 watts and effective radiation power can be nearly 15,000 watts or more. most powerful microwave oven are 1200 watts as comparison.

@supersal001 Evolution is not integrating with the digital age. We are taught that because most of us are not aware of our own energies....In our natural state we will evolve when we are in tune with the soul...We depend too much on technology & unfortunately this will be our downfall.The digital age is devolution not evolution. Embrace all you have within you & you will evolve. Be blessed

Why is it always someone trying to sell some device reporting that wireless is dangerous? Oh yeah, b/c they want to sell you the device.

[IceAges14Aces]

Maybe yes, maybe no. While it is true that there are studies that seem to support the alternative hypothesis of radiation from wireless electronics causes brain tumor, etc., I'm actually not convinced. I have seen horrendously biased studies in peer-reviewed journals with flawed statistical analyses and quite frankly exaggeration. Sorry, but science really need to get their shit straight in their journals...

If you too, came here because of your english teacher =D

@supersal001 Correct.

“Could the stimulating impact of cell phone radiation to boost brain energy explain some of the growing addiction many of us feel for our phones?Repeated elevated levels of “feel good” dopamine in the mood-regulating amygdala means habitual cell phone users need a fix as often as cigarette smokers. But after many calls, lesions and shrinkage in the amygdala makes heavy “users” more anxious, depressed, dumber, forgetful – and aggressive. google WEEP news / cell phones

[jejeroy]

are you serious you get a new IPHONE 4 rolf in my head its like die of electromagnetic field

[2wowee]

im so tired of hearing about the dangers of cell phones about your body , know days everything you eat or do your gona day , get a friken life people . if its that damn bad take friken phones off the damn market. and shut up

[cr656565]

@granglepuss ou should probably see a doctor. I dont feel that... or hear that....
